LinkedInThe oversubscribed round will fund a next-generation sensor tape-out and team expansion following a surge in sales.
"We’ve already doubled our 2025 sales, we’re approaching break-even, and our customers are telling us exactly what they want from future product"
The oversubscribed round was led by DSW Ventures with backing from Scottish Enterprise, SWIM Capital and the University of Strathclyde.
"We’re excited to enter the next stage for Northern Light Microscopy. With the technology validated, this funding enables us to move forward into initial sales, scaling and product line expansion."
The funding was led by PXN Ventures with participation from Scottish Enterprise, Archangels and the European Space Agency.
"Businesses are increasingly aware that nature loss and climate risks have direct implications for financial performance, supply chains and long-term resilience. The challenge is turning complex environmental data into information that can support real business decisions. Earth Blox was built to bridge that gap, helping organisations see clearly where environmental change affects value and where investment today can strengthen future performance."
The funding round was supported by One Planet Capital, SFC Capital, Scottish Enterprise, and the British Business Bank.
"My main motivation was the huge opportunity to make an impact when I realized the potential of my idea. This started out as a dissertation on wind turbines and realized this could be so much more. I want to make a difference. We need clean energy fast to meet our targets we are behind on. Hence my inspiration to design a wind turbine that focused on lowering costs, improving logistics and eliminating the need for cranes and large teams to install and maintain wind turbines."
The funding round was led by Archangels to support product development and market entry.
"Oncology is an exciting and vibrant sector. The scientists and technologists have been doing incredible things based upon the samples that they’re given, but there hasn’t been any particular movement in how the samples are prepared for years. Our msX platform has the potential to revolutionise how samples are collected, allowing for larger samples, faster extraction, simpler processing, and fully automatable capabilities."
